§ Sir R. HAMILTONasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what reply he has returned to the request of the British Herring Fishing Association for power to control the industry?
Mr. W. ADAMSONThe terms of the resolutions passed at the meeting on 2nd June have reached me this week. I, obviously, cannot reply until the proposals have been fully considered by the Departments concerned and possibly discussed with the various branches of the industry. I have asked the Fishery Board for Scotland to give the matter early attention.
